Dave,

 

This is what I have on this piece.  Was one of the first rigs I drove.  A manual trans - was fun to drive.  Would love to get a picture of whereever it ended up at.

1980 Chevrolet K/Pierce - mini-pumper, 400/250/20, 4X4 with a PTO pump, and front ground sweeps.  The unit was purchased for $40,440.  It had a 4-speed with a 350 CID engine.  It also had a Rockwell Foam eductor. It was used as a initial attack piece when it was first bought, then as a field piece, and it was converted to a rescue truck a couple of times when the 1982 Hendrickson/Grumman/Howe rescue-pumper was out of service for a extended period of time.  It was sold to a dealer in Texas in 1986, who sold it to a company in Mexico.

Last I had heard, they were still in service.  I think there is only about 10 or 12 people in the boro.  within the last year or two there was a, I think, Federal "judgement" enforcing the sellout/moveout order from back in the 70's.  I would have to guess that at some point in the next couple years, Centralia will be a Boro with only streets and vegetation.

State Convention in Williamsport by chance?  Back in, like, 1984 or there abouts.
